A Different Omega-3 Building Block For Each Of Life's Stages.
Omega-3 fatty acids are a family of unsaturated fatty acids required by, but cannot be produced by the body. We must rely on our diet to provide the proper amounts that we need.
The three nutritionally important omega-3s are:
- Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)
- Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)
- Docsahexaenoic acid (DHA)
ALA, often sourced from flax, requires metabolism by your body in order to be used. Excellent sources of EPA and DHA come from small fish and tuna. EPA and DHA do not require further metabolism so they are ready for your body to put to work.
Most of us don’t eat enough foods rich in omega-3 to provide the daily recommended amount prescribed by Health Canada. A supplement is a great way to boost our omega-3 intake.
Supplements with ALA as a main component, do not convert EPA and DHA at an optimum rate for the body to use. It’s more efficient to supplement directly with EPA and DHA and vary the ratios of each to target your age related needs.
- Higher DHA to EPA ratio aids in brain development and function, important for children, youth and seniors.
- Higher EPA to DHA ratio promotes heart and cardiovascular health, important to adults and seniors.
